 While this GUID <b>{3B7C8860-D78F-101B-B9B5-04021C009402}</b> is
 killbited, this one <b><font color='green'>{B617B991-A767-4F05-99BA-AC6FCABB102E}</font></b>

 works fine so it is possible, using the "SaveFile()" method,
 to save the content of the rich textbox on a user's pc.
 This can be used to save, overwrite and/or corrupt arbitrary
 files on the system.

 Implements IObjectSafety: True
